a Europe in which each country had its great and not so nice features. The lay down rapidly, as all countries, by degrees, into a unit and so that everything blended into a mush. Suddenly, things that for centuries constituted a specialty of a country not worth anything. That could just go on no longer so, where would be then.
When I, after many years, again visited the island of Sicily, it was still possible, just like all the years before to buy from a shepherd exceptionally good cheese, which he himself had produced. You could take a look in his spotless kitchen and tiled cheese. Then it was suddenly no longer possible. The conditions were so high, the already investing the sum. Most Schaefer questioned the sale of its cheese, and yes, the sheep were also only held by a few.
It was the same with the wine. My sister had many years where their self-vinified wine from their vineyards to friends and relatives, only partially sold. No longer possible, they would have to invest about 40,000 euros in order to meet the requirements. Now there is the wine just only for my family.
Well, many will think now, stop is Italy, so nothing can be different.
Far from it.
Yesterday morning I heard a report on the radio, the station was B 5. There the case of a brewery restaurant was portrayed in the district. The young host told me that his grandfather had already killed himself. The animals came from the place and went completely stress-free with the farmer, whom they had grown up with. They have endured not endless transports. The host and wurstete killed himself, knew exactly what meat he recovered and offered.
This changed abruptly with 01.01.2010. Given that new taxes were due for butcher and the landlord of the restaurant could not grow above the old building, except now times of the investment.
Now he must go to Ulm slaughterhouse and there pick up his meat. The origin of the pork is completely unknown to him, since no evidence is required for pigs. So you can certainly come from factory farms. And then finally, no one knows what they were fed. Or?
the tomatoes come up from our garden, last year they were harvested. The seed I received from the EU country of Austria. An Austria-German co-production. But I do not know if they meet any EU requirements. We have eaten it myself.
